"HOMESTAY NETWORK" STUDENT GUIDELINES
On arrival at your new home:
· Try to remember the names of your host family. If unsure about how to address them, it is okay to ask how they would like to be called. For example, if it is impolite in your country to call someone elder by their first name, ask if it’s okay to add Mr. or Mrs. in front of their names. Some Americans do not like to be addressed this way because it makes them feel old.
· Show your family that you are grateful for being your host. But do not give expensive gifts. It is, however, considered appropriate to bring inexpensive handcrafts from your country or a small gift for the children of the host family.
· Your host family will be curious to know more about you. Bring photos of your family and friends to share with them. This is also a great way to break the ice with
